Carthage Police Chief Chris McKenzie told CNN affiliate News 14 Carolina that there were six dead at the scene and three wounded, including a police officer. Gretchen Kelly, a spokeswoman for FirstHealth Moore Regional Hospital, told CNN later that two of the six patients brought there had died, and two were still being treated.

Few details of the shootings, which happened about 10 a.m. Sunday, were immediately available. There was no immediate indication as to the attacker’s motive, and it was not clear whether the gunman was in custody or was among the dead or wounded.

“I ain’t never seen nobody being mistreated down there or nothing,” Bobby Dunn, whose 89-year-old mother was living at the facility, told News 14. “That’s what I can’t understand — why somebody would come and do something like that.”
